Description

Phlebotomy is a necessary procedure in order to correctly diagnose a patient. As a result, phlebotomists can be found in almost every healthcare discipline. Phlebotomists work in hospitals, doctor’s offices, laboratories, blood donation centers, and many other outpatient clinics. One benefit of becoming a phlebotomist is having the wide selection in what type of environment to work in.

Phlebotomy technicians collect blood from patients and prepare the samples for testing. Most work in hospitals and clinics, but some collect blood for donation purposes. Phlebotomy technicians are important members of the health care team and often need to explain the blood-drawing procedure and put patients at ease.
